Excerpt from Chicago: The World's Youngest Great City Spiritual and material resources of an indomitable community, who know its history, its resolution, its mission. We who are so close to Chicago's many and various activities and who have watched the city's rapid growth, not as spectators but as participants, set forth this book that the world may also share our pride and confidence. What are we, fellow workers building the youngest of the great cities? We are an incorporation of the forces of destiny; and what we would we Will. Chicago would have everyone its friend. By what method then may this desire be accomplished? Not by spreading boastful and false impressions of greatness, but by truths of record. Chicago is no better, but also no worse, than/ any Other great city. We are world leaders in many lines of industry and commerce; and by hard work only has this position been gained. We therefore take credit where credit is due, but are glad to give with the same spirit. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

""Which neighborhood?" It's one of the first questions you're asked when you move to Chicago. And the answer you give - be it Bucktown, Bronzeville, or Bridgeport - can give your inquisitor a good idea of who you are, especially in a metropolis with so many different neighborhoods and suburbs to choose from." "Many of us know little of the neighborhoods beyond those where we work, play, and live. This is particularly true in Chicagoland, a region that spans over 4,400 square miles and is home to more than 9.5 million residents. Now, historian Ann Durkin Keating's compact guide, drawn largely from the bestselling Encyclopedia of Chicago, brings the history of Chicago neighborhoods to life."--BOOK JACKET.

Excerpt from The Book of Chicago Monday morning would there be discovery of his crime. With a Chicagoan, to think is to act. Con vinced that the trembling man before him felt genuine remorse and was of potential honesty of pur pose, the preacher said: You will 'go back to New York to-night. I will go with you. We will take the midnight train; and when the bank opens on Monday morning you and I will be together there to meet your directors.' And they were. The seal Of the city mingles the present and the past. A sheaf Of wheat is in the middle; and, oddly and Of course quite unintentionally, there is some thing about the way in which it is presented in mid air, which suggests the idea that it is held on a pair of hidden horns. There is a Ship under full sail before a brisk northeast wind; and sailing Ships are now an uncommon Sight here in these days of steam. There are rippling waves represented, and this, naturally, the city still has in its view; although many a Chicagoan, some in jest but most Of them in very serious earnest, have lamented the presence of the lake as something which has prevented the laying out Of streets to the eastward: And you will be told that thousands and thousands of Chicagoans have never seen the lake; this being literally the case, be cause immense numbers Of foreigners, living to the west Of the river, do not readily get to the Lake Front even if they come to the central business sec tion.

Excerpt from From Side Streets and Boulevards: A Collection of Chicago Stories IN the year 1858 lived in a diminutive cottage, on the outskirts of one of our large eastern cities, a small family in rather reduced circumstances. This family differed from the thousands similarly situated in the misfortunes leading to their pres ent condition. The father was one of the younger sons in a wealthy English family; he had been scrupulously taught the manly accomplishments appertaining to his station in life, received a liberal education, particularly in the art of spending money, and on reaching his twenty-fifth year fell in love with a handsome, highly educated girl, the daughter of a minister; this lady brought to her husband no larger dower than her beauty and devotion. All might have been well if the young husband had not already formed that taste for ardent spirits which has been, and is, the blight of so many hearthstones.
